Redesign of a form

Print Post Print Post  
Smiley  I have transferred from Q&A to Sesame.  This program is more difficult that Q&A! 

Embarrassed 1.)  When the data was transferred it does not seem that the formulas was tranfereered because when the data is changed the result does not change.
Embarrassed 2.)  I changed the format of the form and saved the program layout and saved but when I close designer and return to the database the changes do not appear.

Please be patient, I am new to the Sesame Software.
Thanks!

Are you getting any kind of error message when you open the form? If your program uses something like @XLookup to change values, you will need to adjust where it looks for those values. It may still be looking for the Q&A database.

When you make changes in Designer, you are working on a copy of your database. You need to Reconcile your changes to the db. See page 170 of the Sesame User Guide.
